3dsmall:here’s why i am going to need everybody to shut the fuck up about how they think economic inequality is more important than racism. here is why i need fucking occupy wallstreet type white people to stop fucking derailing RACIAL demonstrations.THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM TARGETS BLACK BODIES NOT ACTUAL CRIMINALSKate Meckler, a real-estate broker who is worth millions, shoplifted $2,000 worth of clothing from Saks in NYC. That’s felony larceny. She was apprehended verbally by security, she apologized was convicted of a misdemeanor,disorderly conduct. No jail time.Kayla Phillips, a (ridiculously beautiful) successful model bought a $4,500 dollar Celine bag from Barney’s in NYC (because she is ballin like that). Kayla was followed by three officers who violently slammed her to the ground and attempted to arrest her for shoplifting.Socioeconomic inequality is real and important but at the end of the day you can be rich rich rich as fuck but if you’re black you will still be treated as subhuman. Kate Meckler didn’t get off scott free because she is rich, she did because she is WHITE. Kayla was treated much worse for a crime she didn’t even commit, and her wealth did not save her from that, she suffered police violence anyway. -- source link
